If the preparty isnt exciting I'm thinking of going to the Macy Gray and Blind Boys of Alabama show which is at the Botanical Gardens (Alfonso XIII), anyone been to that venue? Is it a decent spot to go for a concert?

also thinking about this concert Amadou & Mariam are good, been there last year for David Byrne concert,  it's nice and not that big place but would recommend if you go to the standing area to come early, I was thinking it's small so I won't have any problem to get good spot so I came from a afternoon at the Retiro park and of course buy some food and drink there and when I got the stage area few minutes before the concert start it was very crowded and i couldn't see nothing from the stage although I'm not short so I needed to go to the sides and stand on some things, but I would say it fells a bit like overbooking which I'm not sure is happening every concert there and David Byrne might be more popular. as for the seating area I wasn't there but it seems you have a good view from any place but although there were screens strangely they didn't work during the show.. maybe if I'll come I'll try it this time

surprised to see them here, they're playing portugal's primavera sound so you would have thought they would also play barcelona's

[jparx]

Let's Eat Grandma is good progress! Any idea what Perry Farrell's thing is about? Seen him doing solo shows before and it's usually great.

[DarthSaul]

American Authors just to balance out some of those good announcements with a healthy dose of crap

He has a new album and a single out. Sounds very Perry Farrell

marr!! would love to see him with morrissey since he seems to be hanging out with everyone as of late (morrissey)

[jparx]

Johnny Marr is good. He's also at Glasto so I don't have to worry about any clashes with him. Interested to see if this continue beyond noon.
